Finally A Snorlax

September 2, 2018 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

The day started out with swimming at the neighborhood pool. Joanna, Katie, Jasmine and Katrina all came over as well. All I did was dunk my feet in and watch the little ones go crazy.

Afterward we ordered some pho and I ate while watching some TVB. I couldn’t even make a dent in it since I haven’t been feeling so well this trip.

Dinner consisted of hot pot at Squares Hot Pot which isn’t such a bad deal. We tend to overeat when it’s all you can eat. Can you believe we are all full and it costs less than if we did all you can eat? Crazy!

On the way home I caught a Snorlax. SNORLAX! I’ve been wanting one since the beginning of time when I first started playing. I feel so accomplished now. I don’t know if I should even continue.

Time to cuddle with ~~Snorlax~~ Rizzo and fall asleep. This girl is tired and need all the rest she needs to fight whatever this is.

Full Day of Emmy

This morning I finally got to see Emmy! We played a little bit and she headed to her gym class. After she was done we all headed to IHOP then Zero Degrees for drinks. Matcha Milk Tea for the win!

[2018] 244/365: Emmy and Rizzo Asleep

We headed back to the house thinking Emmy would fall in a long enough nap. Instead she woke up after thirty minutes or so and was wild for hours. Sissy and I had to pretend sleep for her to fall asleep and soon enough I was able to capture this cute picture.

We stopped by Joanna’s to say hi to her, the kids, and Katie before heading to dinner at Yoon Korean BBQ. We weren’t thinking of doing all you can eat but individual dishes were pretty much almost the same price. Though the food is good, the service is horrible and we believe it’s because the top was already added since we had five people. So lame.

Brudda took Emmy home and SIL, Jenny, June and I headed to Missha, a Korean beauty store for some masks, mostly gifts for others in the future but I’m excited to try them on.

Right next door is Tom n Toms Coffee where us four ladies each got a drink and headed to the second floor to chill and relax and talk. It is pretty nice to have this moment since it’s been awhile since I hung out with SIL and Jenny.

We are finally headed home where I can shower and cuddle with Rizzo until we fall asleep.

Playful Rizzo

[2018] 243/365: Rizzo and Kato Playing

Rizzo rarely plays so I was surprised he was holding a toy and trying to get Kato to play with.

He also does not play fetch after a long time so I was happy to see him continuously fetching.

Sissy, BIL, June, the pups and I all headed off to Dallas.

And was greeted with ribs and soup upon arrival.

Now time to shower and relax to be energized for Emmy time tomorrow!

June’s Birthday Dinner

[2018] 242/365: June’s Birthday Dinner

After work June went with me to pick up my car from the shop. Finally!! So far it’s good. Hopefully nothing happens when I go into work tomorrow.

Since it’s June’s birthday today and it was just us, we decided to order Thai Cottage to celebrate. I went and got her two slices of cheesecakes as well as her birthday cake and we’ve been having a girl’s night since.

It’s pretty nice to have this moment with her. It felt a little sad that I was the only one celebrating with her on her actual birthday but I guess it makes it that much more special.

Now to shower and relax.

2018 Houston Restaurant Week at Tobiuo Sushi & Bar

August 29, 2018 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Another Houston Restaurant Week for the books this year! Was it worth the $35 for four courses? Probably not.

Mallory and JJ came along for the ride with me and Scruffy. I haven’t seen these two for a long while so it was long overdue. This boy has grown up so fast!

We ordered two rounds of sake bombs, traditional between Mallory and I. I haven’t drank that much in such a long time I got tipsy.

Our first course was pretty bleugh overall. I believe the coconut shrimp was the best out of everything flavourwise.

Our second course blew me away! I was surprised to find that I had nine pieces of sashimi instead of six as stated on the menu. Everything was pretty good overall for this course.

Scruffy and I got the same for our third course. The ribeye was very flavourful and tender. Probably one of the best I’ve had in a while. Mallory’s salmon was pretty good too. I especially loved the crispy skin.

Four our fourth and final course, we were deeply disappointed. The waiter said the watermelon dessert was his favourite but it was horrible. Think of a watermelon soaked in lemon-citris juice. The summer shaved ice was a big giant fail. JJ had fun eating the fruit out of it though. The winner was the Lychee Ice Cream with Macarons.

[2018] 241/365: Dinner with Some Favourites

It’s usually just Mallory, JJ and I at dinner or over at her house so I was very estatic that Scruffy was around to join us. With him and Mallory chatting up a storm I was able to chopstick feed JJ and focus on him. He is adorable and makes me wish my niece was closer to us so I could do the same with her.

After dinner we all stopped by Sephora before heading home. I’m so pooped. I cannot wait to jump into bed. Good night!
